Happy Friday! To wrap up another exciting week of learning highly multiplexed DNA-PAINT in the Jungmann Lab, here's a nice #cellfie of a rat hippocampal neuron stained for synaptic vesicle markers (Vamp2, VGlut1 and synaptotagmin), clathrin, neurofilament and peroxisomes.

Women are born with all their oocytes, which need to stay viable for decades to ensure fertility. How are they maintained for that long? Our latest research in Nature Cell Biology reveals that oocyte maintenance involves exceptional protein longevity. nature.com/articles/s4155… (1/9)
